A town in the mountainous region of southern Armenia, Shaki is nestled in a sublime landscape and home to the most beautiful waterfalls in the country. The Shaki Falls in the Vorotan Gorge is immense - 18m high and 40m wide.

My suggestion
You can hike up the River Shaki's valley or, if you want to see the paleolithic petroglyphs at Ughtasar, go by car and stop at Ishkanasar. The site is one of the best of its kind in Armenia and Shaki is right on its doorstep!
